  • Linking dynamics of the near-surface flow to deeper boundary layer forcing in the nocturnal boundary layer

    Creator:
    Smoot, Alexander R.
    Abstract:
    Weak-wind flow in the nocturnal boundary is one of the most poorly understood problems in the field of meteorology. The understanding of weak-wind flows is essential for the improvement of regulatory dispersion models which are currently rendered invalid under weak-wind conditions and stable stratification. Recently there have been increased efforts...

  • The field edge flux paradox

    Creator:
    Barr, Colleen M.
    Abstract:
    Precision irrigation has made spatially explicit water management a reality. However, detailed knowledge about the spatially variable evapotranspiration is often unavailable. One example location where we can begin to understand the impact of spatial variability on evapotranspiration is at the field edge, which contains a sharp discontinuity in surface conditions....

  • Bright air : geoprocessing thermal imagery to map the nocturnal dynamics of the boundary layer in a mountain valley

    Creator:
    Johnson, Christopher
    Abstract:
    A thermal infrared (TIR) camera is used to remotely sense the foliage temperature in a mountain valley. The foliage temperature is used as a proxy for air temperature and can be used to study and map the dynamics of the nocturnal, weak-wind boundary layer in this valley. All radiative flux...
